Hawaiian regional cuisine is blossoming, and every Wednesday the Kauai Culinary Market is hosted in the center from 3:30 to 6 p.m. in the traditional pau hana (after work) style. Live island music fills the air; fresh, locally-grown fruits, vegetables and coffee, along with spices, jams and cheeses fill farmers' stands. South shore chefs take the stage at the Wine and Beer Garden to show their skill cooking local specialties, and if you're lucky, there'll be ribs!
